Documentation: dev-tools: Clarify requirements for result description
Currently the KTAP specification says that a test result line is <result> <number> [<description>][ # [<directive>] [<diagnostic data>]] and the description of a test can be "any sequence of words (can't include #)" which specifies that there may be more than one word but does not specify anything other than those words which might be used to separate the words which probably isn't what we want. Given that practically we have tests using a range of separators for words including combinations of spaces and combinations of other symbols like underscores or punctuation let's just clarify that the description can contain any character other than # (marking the start of the directive/diagnostic) or newline (marking the end of this test result).
